Clan Forsyth Society – Australia CLAN FORSYTH SOCIETY – AUSTRALIA QUEENSLAND BRANCH July 2012 z Our Annual Dinner back in March was a wonderful night as usual. I’m sure that everyone who attended had a great time. Vice President, Geoff Forsyth, below left, did a terrific job as MC. Bruce and Baydon Mitchell, our musicians, kept everyone up on the dance floor, playing everything from the Chicken Dance, to Ballroom, to music for the Scottish Country Dancing. We had all the pomp and circumstance of addressing the Haggis which our President, Val Ashton, on left with Sue Forsyth,, carried in. Our Scottish Country Dancers, below right, led by Glenys Ashton, did a great job getting everyone involved. We would love to hear from anybody who is interested in joining our little troupe. It’s great fun and good exercise. Anybody of any ability can give it a go. If interested contact Heather on PH: 32817553 This year we celebrated the year of the farmer. Val had the cerebal cogs working overtime with her farm themed quiz and our raffle prizes were locally produced wine donated by Clan friends Merv & Marlene Welk, hampers made of locally produced vegies, eggs and jams. I’m sure our first prize, a bottle of scotch donated by Trevor Forsyth, had to have it’s origins on some sort of farm. Even our dancers had farm themed dances with ‘Beef Stew’, ‘White Cockatoo’ and ‘Farmer’s Harvest’ Activities Day At the end of May we had our activities day, which was a whole lot of fun. The weather forecast was for a miserable day. Glad they are so often wrong as it couldn’t have been more perfect. The kids had a ball in the jumping castle, right, the disc bowls was very competitive with Garry Ashton & Ashleigh Kerkin winning, pipping out Garry’s daughter Stacey & Merv Welk. Victor & Stuart Ashton won a very hard fought contest of 500 against Les & Joyce Forsyth. Jacinta Ashton won the talent quest with a great song and coming runner’s up were a couple of budding magicians Ashleigh & Tulliah Kerkin, left. Bethel Gordon celebrates 95 years. Bethel was born on the 16th May 1917 at Ipswich. She grew up in Peak Crossing, one of 9 children born to Caroline & Hector Forsyth. Eaton & Iris passed away at birth, Mabel died of diabetes at the age of 10 after she had been in hospital for 4 years. Lenny died at Milne Bay during the war in 1942. That left Doris, Bethel, Joan, Enid (passed away in 2010) and Max. Bethel married Matt Gordon on the 31st August 1940 and they went on to have two girls, Carmel & Rosalie. Sadly Matt passed away on the 22nd August 2005, but the dynasty grows on. Bethel has 6 grandchildren and 17 great grand children. Now let me give you a little insight into this marvelous woman. First I must tell you of the ‘lemon’ episode. When she was quite young she was given some lemons by Mr Scrag. While walking along the railway line the train came by. On board were a couple of her classmates, Mick O’Neal & Mervin Winks, and they called out for her to throw them a lemon. So she did. But oh no it missed them and went into the next carriage and hit an elderly gentleman in the eye. Next day at school Mr Bradshaw the headmaster wanted to know who was responsible for throwing the lemon.Standing forward Bethel owned up to the deed after which she received a stern lecture. Now we jump forward to when she was a teenager. Sisters Joan & Bethel and cousin Edna (Gamlen) decided they were going to the dance in Harrisville (unbeknown to their parents). Hitching a ride on the railmotor, they were hoping to get a ride home with Jackie Collins. His sister had other ideas and wouldn’t let him. So what was the alternative. Walk. So off they went on foot home to Peak Crossing. Because they weren’t suppose to be out they jumped into the grass out of sight at the side of the road whenever a car came by. They got home very dishevelled in time for Bethel to get dressed to go to the dairy. Their parents never found out. Now we are jumping forward a few more years when husband Matt was giving Bethel a driving lesson. They were going up Billy Auldhaus’ hill when she got a smack on the knee to tell her to take her foot off the clutch. She responded with a few expletives after which she got out of the car and told him to jam his vehicle up his ****. So ended the driving lesson, never to be repeated. All this was happening with young Carmel in the back seat. Bethel has always been a great supporter of the Clan attending our functions and for the last five years she has been the eldest at the annual picnic. The baby on her knee (the youngest at the picnic) changes every year, but Bethel isn’t giving up her crown as the oldest yet. At the great age of 95 she is now a resident of the Fassifern Aged Care Village, Stark Ave, Boonah. So if you are ever in the area, drop in and have a chat and a laugh. She always has a great story to tell. It would be great if I could get stories from other Clan members so that I could share them with you all. Tripping about Rhonda and Keith Noe have just come back from a 7 week trip to the Great Britian and Europe. On their stop over in Paris they met up with their daughter Margie and her husband Wade who were coincidentally holidaying there. The weather held good for their entire trip (hard to believe). They had a wonderful time seeing all the sights on offer. Some upcoming events that you might be interested in. 7th July the 16th International Tartan Day will be held at King George Square, Brisbane City Hall. 9am – 4pm with plenty of Scottish fun and entertainment. The day is presented by Aussie Scots.

Info: Buddy Thomson & Lynne Bennett Ph 07 4168 0168 or [email protected]. 26th August The most important date on our calendar. The Annual AGM and Picnic at Peak Crossing. Keep the date free and come along for a good old fashion get-together and chin wag. We will have our usual Bring & Buy Stall and Beth will have the genealogy there. 10th – 11th Nov We are organising another reunion with our more northerly Forsyth’s in Monto. More information about this weekend at a later date. While in Scotland Rhonda and Keith Noe found a little book concerning the Forsyth’s which over the next few newsletters I will give excerpts. ‘FORSYTH. Established in Scotland since at least the twelfth century, the Forsyth’s have shared in both the nation’s glorious fortunes and it’s tragic misfortunes. Stalwart defenders of the nation’s freedom and independence , they were equally firm in the defence of their faith, often at bitter cost to themselves. Origins of Scottish Names by George Forbes It all began with the Normans. For it was they who introduced surnames into common usage more than a thousand years ago, initially based on the title of their estates, local villages and chateaux in France to distinguish and identify these landholdings, usually acquired at the point of a bloodstained sword. Such grand descriptions also helped enhance the prestige of these arrogant warlords and generally glorify their lofty positions high above the humble serfs slaving away below in the pecking order who only had single names, often with Biblical connotations as in Pierre and Jacques. The only descriptive distinctions among the peasantry concerned their occupations, like Pierre the swineherd or Jacques the ferryman. The Normans themselves were originally Vikings (or Northmen) who raided, colonised and eventually settled down around the French coastline. They had sailed up the Seine in their longboats in 900AD under their ferocious leader Rollo and ruled the roost in the north east France before sailing over to conquer England, bring their relatively new tradition of having surnames with them.It took another hundred years for the Normans to percolate northwards and surnames did not begin to appear in Scotland until the thirteenth century.These adventurous knights brought an aura of chivalry with them and it was said no damsel of any distinction would marry a man unless he had a least two names. The family names incuded that of Scotland’s great hero Robert De Brus and his compatriots were warriors from families like the De Morevils, De Umphravils, De Berkelais, De Quincis, De Viponts and De Vaux. As the knights settled the boundaries of their vast estates, they took territorial names, as in Hamilton, Moray, Crawford, Cunningham, Dunbar, Ross, Wemyss, Dundas, Galloway, Renfrew, Greenhill, Hazelwood, Sandylands and Church-hill. Other names, though not with any obvious geographical features, nevertheless derived from ancient parishes like Douglas, Forbes, Dalyell and Guthrie. Other surnames were coined in connection with occupations, castles or legendary deeds. Stuart originated in the word steward, a prestigious post which was an intergral part of any medieval household. The same applied to Cooks, Chamberlains, Constables and Porters. Border towns and forts – needed in areas like the Debateable Lands which were constantly fought over by fueding local families – had their own distinctive names; and it was often from them that the resident groups took their communial titles, as in the Grahams of Annandale, the Elliots and Armstrongs of the East Marches, the Scotts and Kerrs of the Teviotdale and Eskdale.

  • Forsyth Notes, Issue93
    FORSYTH NOTES April 15, 2005 Welcome to the ninety-third issue of Forsyth Notes . Forsyth Notes is published bi- monthly by Clan Forsyth Society of the USA, and is your e-link to your extended Forsyth family. April 16 th marks the anniversary of the major turning point in Scottish history – the Battle of Culloden. This issue of Forsyth Notes is dedicated to our brave ancestors who fought for freedom. They may have lost the final battle, and many lost their lives, but their bravery and philosophy has dramatically changed the world. America is the product of their thirst for freedom. Although a different time and place, the philosophy of these brave Scots was best expressed four hundred twenty-six years earlier in the Declaration of Arbroath (April 6, 1320): It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself. The Battle of Culloden - April 16th 1746 The Battle of Culloden by Mark Churms The Battle of Culloden - April 16th 1746 - marked the fall of the Jacobite rebellion of 1745, which sought to restore the Stuart monarchy to the throne. In barely 40 minutes of fighting, the massed army of Bonnie Prince Charlie had been slaughtered by government troops (which also contained Scottish clans) led by Prince William the Duke of Cumberland. On a cold drizzly day in April in the year of Our Lord 1746, two armies faced each other across a bleak moor near the town of Inverness in the north of Scotland.

From Clan Forsyth Society A Wee Bit of Scottish Humor The Bagpiper By Gary Martz Time is like a river. You cannot touch the water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of life. As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the Nova Scotia back country. As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and, being a typical man, I didn't stop to ask for directions. I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch. I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and saw that the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play. The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends.

  • Journal of Clan Forsyth Australia Queensland Branch May 2015
    CLAN FORSYTH SOCIETY OF AUSTRALIA QUEENSLAND BRANCH (Est 1979) Restorer of Ruin Clan Journal – May 2015 (Extract of Message to Clan Forsyth Queensland – Read by Master of Ceremonies at 2015 Clan Forsyth Dinner to all Members and Guests) When I first came to Queensland as Chief in 1979 it was not my first visit for I arrived in Brisbane in 1963 as a new migrant together with my wife Ann and two sons. What a different city it was, my maternal Uncle was Harbourmaster and I joined an import/export firm based in Newstead as their new Queensland Manager. It was a really exciting assignment for a young man whose previous experience had been as a Tea Broker in Calcutta. What a different city it was, then, Surfers Paradise was just a golden beach with one small hotel , we might travel at the weekend to the “Boolarong” restaurant on Mooloolaba beach for huge tiger prawns or to Mt Tamborine to touch the oldest tree in Australia and enjoy the cool sea breeze. Living in an old “Stumpy” overlooking the Ascot Racecourse it was an idyllic life and I have the fondest memories of your wonderful homeland. All too soon promotion carried me off to Sydney but the memories remain. When I returned in 1979 I went to Peak Crossing and up the Fassifern Valley past Forsyth settlement homes, Brisbane had changed , the old buildings with their timber overhangs shielding the fierce sun, like the fans had gone, replaced by air conditioning in modern tower blocks, life had changed and so I realised the Clan Forsyth must also.

The index to the first 28 volumes was one large index with no sub-divisions. As a great number of queries were published it was decided to include these in a section of their own from volume 29 onwards. From volume 41 the index was split into the following sections: General index; Article Titles; Contributors; Reviews; Work in Progress; Queries. A separate section for Illustrations was included in the index for volumes 45-52. NUMBERING There has not been uniformity in the numbering format used by the different compilers of the indexes. A volume covers one year during which 4 journals were issued usually in March, June, September and December. In the current index these have been harmonised to follow the most commonly used pattern: Volume number - Roman numerals capitals Journal number - Roman numerals lower case Page number - Arabic numerals Example: XXXIX.iv.116 -Volume 39, December issue, page 116. Page numbering Page numbering in the journals has not been consistent over the years.

In the early 1300’s, when the English invaded Scotland and were going to destroy the walls of Dykes, the king called for some one to stop the raid until he had time to mass his forces. I volunteered, and succeeded in stopping the English with less than four hundred men. As a reward of my service to the king, the motto Instaurator Ruinae (Restorer of the Ruins) was approved and granted to my family for its invaluable services at the battle of Dykes. I built Castle Dykes around 1350, and became feudal Baron of Dykes and the first lord of Castle Dykes. My family occupied Dykes for two and three-quarter centuries.

    ********************************************************************************* GENEALOGISTS FOR THE SCOTTISH CLANS by Robert D. McLaren 7810 Kincardine Court Alexandria, VA 22315-4025 (703) 971-6924 [email protected] 8 April 2000 Version 2000-3 © Copyright 2000 Robert D. McLaren The following list is a compilation of Clan Genealogists or Clan points of contact for genealogy (for the Scottish Clans and Family Associations). The amount of information available from these genealogists varies greatly, with some having extensive records. For example, the clan genealogist for Clan Scott maintains a database of all SCOTTs and is a coordinator of the SCOTT One Name Society. He has about 53,000 records on file dealing with more than 2,000 family lines. The clan genealogist/historian for Clan Barclay also is a coordinator for the BARCLAY One Name Society. She has about 19,000 BARCLAY/BARKLEY and collateral names on file dealing with 125 family lines. The Clan Morrison historian has a 6,000-name database of MORRISON families in the U.S. and Canada. Some clans have genealogy committees. When I learn about them I will include committee members in this listing. Some of these members only cover one or a few states. In these cases, I note the states that particular member covers. Also, some clan genealogists specialize in one surname of a clan. Clan MacKay, for example, has many surname genealogists. I am listing these surnames under the parent clan with a note (i.e., See also Mackie). The actual genealogist and his/her address will be listed under the surname (i.e., Mackie). For some clans, more than one society exists.

A Wee Bit of Scottish Humor One winter morning a Glasgow couple was listening to the radio over breakfast. They hear the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snow plows can get through." Norman's wife goes out and moves her car. A week later while they are eating breakfast again, the radio announcer says, "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snow plows can get through." Norman's wife goes out and moves her car again. The next week they are again having breakfast, when the radio announcer says "We are expecting 12 To 14 inches of snow today. You must park............" Then the electric power goes out. Norman's wife is very upset, and with a worried look on her face she says, "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the snow plows can get through?" With the love and understanding in his voice that all men who are married exhibit, Norman says.......... “Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time?” Flowers of the Forest John Forsythe – Death of An Icon John Forsythe , the debonair actor whose matinee-idol looks, confident charm and mellifluous voice helped make him the star of three hit television series, died on Thursday, April 1, 2010, at the age of 92, at his home in Santa Ynez, Calif.
